In 1999, NASA lost the Mars Climate Orbiter because one group of engineers used metric units in their calculations while another group used English units. Consequently, the orbiter descended too far into the Martian atmosphere and burned up. Suppose that the orbiter was to have established orbit at 157 km and that one group of engineers specified this distance as 1.57 x 10³ m. Suppose further that a second group of engineers programmed the orbiter to go to 1.57 x 10³ ft.

Newton's universal law of gravitation can be stated as the force F of gravitation between two objects varies jointly as the masses m, and m, of the objects, and Gm,m2 inversely as the square of the distance r between their centers, where G is the constant of proportionality. In other words, F = The weight of an object is the force F on the object due to gravity, where F = mg. State how g (the acceleration due to gravity) varies with respect to the mass m, of the spherical body on which the object lies, and the radius of that body (assume all of the mass is at its center.). The acceleration due to gravity, g, varies as the spherical body's mass, and as

Schwarzschild radius RS of a black hole is the maximum distance from the black hole’s center at which light cannot escape its gravitational field. The quantity RS (with dimensions of length) is dependent on the mass of the black hole M, the speed of light c, and the gravitational constant G. Based on the dimensions of these four parameters, predict an equation for the Schwarzschild radius. Hint: G has dimensions of [L3/MT2]
